We’d all like to deliver on our word when we make commitments, but sometimes we can’t. We can get sick, or our car won’t start, or we simply forget to follow through. God is not subject to any of these limitations or lapses. He is all-powerful and is never unable to do what He says He will do. In this passage, God answers Moses’ complaint about the effect of his first audience with Pharaoh with a series of “I will” statements. Over the course of the first half of Exodus, God will fulfill these commitments over and again.

In chapter two, we zoom in to see how the crisis of the Israelites affects the family of Moses. We can imagine that Moses, the author of Exodus, heard this story more than once from the mouths of the three women involved in his rescue from Pharaoh’s murderous edict. Let’s meet these women, each one an instrument of God’s providence.
Exodus 2:11-25

Moses will be the rescuer God chooses, and His vessel of salvation for the Israelites. It is striking that the first major event in Moses’ life is an act of despicable sin. Nevertheless, God uses Moses to bring about the deliverance of His people. This is a stark reminder that God uses even the most shameful events in human history to bring about His good purpose.
